Attentional load and sensory competition in human vision: Modulation of fMRI responses by load fixation during task-irrelevant stimulation in the peripheral visual field. [PDF]
Perceptual suppression of distractors may depend on both endogenous and exogenous factors, such as attentional load of the current task and sensory competition among simultaneous stimuli, respectively. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)

Rules of Connectivity between Geniculate Cells and Simple Cells in Cat Primary Visual Cortex
Hundreds of thalamic axons ramify within a column of cat visual cortex; yet each layer 4 neuron receives input from only a fraction of them. We have examined the specificity of these connections by recording simultaneously from layer 4 simple cells and ...

Binding of Object Representations by Synchronous Cortical Dynamics Explains Temporal Order and Spatial Pooling Data [PDF]
A key problem in cognitive science concerns how the brain binds together parts of an object into a coherent visual object representation. One difficulty that this binding process needs to overcome is that different parts of an object may be processed by ...

Modeling Reverse-Phi Motion-Selective Neurons in Cortex: Double Synaptic-Veto Mechanism [PDF]
Reverse-phi motion is the illusory reversal of perceived direction of movement when the stimulus contrast is reversed in successive frames. Livingstone, Tsao, and Conway (2000) showed that direction-selective cells in striate cortex of the alert macaque ...

Sensory circuits are organized in parallel, e.g. parallel streams relay feedforward visual information from retina to cortex. Corticogeniculate (CG) feedback is also organized in parallel; however, stream-specific influences of CG feedback remained ...

Cholinergic neural activity directs retinal layer-specific angiogenesis and blood retinal barrier formation. [PDF]
Blood vessels in the central nervous system (CNS) develop unique features, but the contribution of CNS neurons to regulating those features is not fully understood. We report that inhibiting spontaneous cholinergic activity or reducing starburst amacrine
